Coffee Not The Solution, Scientists Say
As soon as a possible link between coffee and lowering diabetes risk was

announced
, scientists moved in to debunk it.

Scientists are skeptical that coffee has anything to do with lowering the risk for diabetes.

If anything, the antioxidants in coffee are responsible, and you can get those from much healthier sources. The coffee itself, it seems, may be irrelevant.

"All the study proves is that diabetes is a multi-factoral disease with many variables affecting its development," said Dr Eyad Ksseiry, endocrinologist at Welcare Hospital.

He said that people should adopt lifestyles that are proven to prevent diabetes instead of adding coffee, decaffeinated or otherwise, into their diet.


An excellent point, though perhaps coffee is at least a moderate substitute for people unwilling to change to a healthier lifestyle. Which method would you prefer: some home brew, or diet and exercise?
